I forgot to mention that I did get new rims for my car, and then the ABS light came on after I drove the car away. Would the new rims trigger the ABS sensors. The light didn't return after I turned the car back on 2 minutes later. I will still probably get a diagnostic done anyway.

Thanks for you help.

IT depends on if the outer circumference of the wheel/tire was changed.
